I have created a program to create business cards with custom graphics. I was told by several people that I need to use Crystal reports to be able to print all the data inclluding the pictures. I again was told that Visual Studio Enterprise includes the Crystal Report application.
My question is: How do I access the Crystal Reports Application to apply it to my Visual Basic Program X-)
 
Hope this'll help:

To install Crytal Reports, click on the file Crys132.exe located in the directory \common\tools\vb\crysrept on your VB 6.0 CD Disc 1. The required files will be copied into your system. Then add the Crystal Reports ActiveX control into your project by clicking on Projext...Components...Crystal Report Controls 4.6. The control will show up on your Toolbox and you are ready to add this to your form.

 
Thank you EdRev. I found it and have now installed it....

My next question is how to use the tool.
The picture image prints fine but I haven't been able to get the logo image to show or the text in the lables to print Any extra help from anyone would be great!...Thanks again EdRev...:-D
